ROAD TEST
DescriptionINFOID:0000000001696158
ROAD TEST
• The road test inspects overall performance of the A/T and analyzes possible malfunction causes.
• The road test is carried out in the following three stages.
1. Check before engine is started. Refer to TM-189
.
2. Check at idle. Refer to TM-189
.
3. Cruise test • Inspect all the items from Part 1 to Part 3. Refer to TM-190
, TM-192, TM-193.
• Before beginning the road test, check the test procedure and inspection items.
• Test all inspection items until the symptom is uncov ered. Diagnose NG items when all road tests are com-
plete.

Checking of A/T PositionINFOID:0000000004917429
With the shift selector in the “P” position, turn the ignition switch to the ON position with the engine OFF.
Confirm that the following conditions apply.
• The shift selector can be shifted from the “P ” position only when the brake pedal is depressed.
• The shift selector stops at each position with the feel of engagement when it is moved through all the posi-
tions.
• There is no excessive effort, sticking, noise or rattle.
• The actual position of the shift selector matches the position shown by the shift position indicator and the A/
T body.
• The back-up lamps illuminate only when the shift selector is placed in the “R” position.
• The back-up lamps do not illuminate when the shift selector is pushed against the “R” position when in the
“P” or “N” position.
• The engine can only be started with the shift selector in the “P” and “N” positions.
